This song has been an encouragement for me during every season that I have walked through in the last year. May you continue to persevere through whatever season you are walking through...
"Wake up to the sunlight- With your windows open- Don't hold in your anger or leave things unspoken- Wear your red dress- Use your good dishes- Make a big mess and make lots of wishes- Have what you want- But want what you have- And don't spend your life lookin' back-Turn up the music- Turn it up loud- Take a few chances- Let it all out- You won't regret it- Lookin' back from where you have been- Cuz it's not who you knew- And it's not what you did- It's how you live-So go to the ballgames- And go to the ballet- And go see your folks more than just on the holidays- Kiss all your children- Dance with your wife- Tell your husband you love him every night- Don't run from the truth- 'Cause you can't get away- Just face it and you'll be okay- Oh wherever you are and wherever you've been- Now is the time to begin- So give to the needy- And pray for the grieving- Even when you don't think that you can -'Cause all that you do is bound to come back to you- So think of your fellow man- Make peace with God and make peace with yourself- 'Cause in the end there's nobody else- Turn up the music- Turn it up loud- Take a few chances- Let it all out- 'Cause you won't regret it- Lookin' back from where you have been- 'Cause it's not who you knew- And it's not what you did- It's how you live..
